Glock 9mm 100 Round C-Mag Magazine

Beta Company is taking pre-orders for a C-MAG for the 9mm Glock. This huge magazine weights two pounds (unloaded) and holds 100 rounds of 9mm Luger/Parabellum. It is shipped with a magazine loader, a pouch and tubes of graphite. At $390 (for the clear plastic back model) it is not cheap, but then neither is dumping 100 rounds of ammo. The magazine ships in 12 - 16 weeks.

If you already own a 9mm C-Mag for another gun, FirePower Solutions have developed a range of magazine adapters that allow the 100 round 9mm Beta C-MAG to work with the Glock 17, 18 and 19 and unlike the Glock C-MAG, is available now.

It is sad that magazine technology has come so far in the past few decades, but magazine loading technology has not caught up. This magazine is crying out for a robotic magazine loader icon smile Glock 9mm 100 Round C Mag Magazine photo

    I’m wondering how many people were slightly disappointed when they found this was coming out in 9mm and not .45. The Super V really needs a better ammo solution.

      It is not meant for a point target, any rapid firing weapon is for a area target. It is awesome, only it is lopsided, weight of the ammunition is too heavy for the weight of the weapon.

Some guys win with the best shot, some guys win because they can constantly shoot at everything, or at least that’s what they’re thinking when they decide to purchase one of these…

        Semi auto only calicos are being newly manufactured.

        http://calicolightweaponsystems.com/home/

        the liberty 100 tactical upgrades the sights considerably by adding a rail system for a red-dot.

        previously the rear sight was a lump of plastic with a notch in it, moulded into the detachable magazine.

      I think the original Calico got into trouble for slamfires and crappy-plastic-moulded-into-the-detachable-magazine sights, and didn’t get taken up in the police market like they wanted. A pity, because they had a nifty speed loader that loaded the 100 rd helical mag as fast as you could turn the crank.

      In Russia and China, the Bizon and the Chang Feng took the idea to it’s logical conclusion.

      In the US the closest we get to the concept is a AR five-seven upper, I think.

      Is there something inherently not cost effective about a supercapacity smg/pdw?

      or is it that the machine gun ban limited the market so much to basically PMCs and Government Procurement that it was difficult to enter the game as a new company?

      Unfortunately, helical magazines (so far) have proved to be unreliable due to the intricate and fragile nature of their internals. Mags get dropped on the ground a lot and it doesn’t take much to get one bent out of shape.

      It’s a shame as I really like them as a concept.

    So you go out and buy a full auto Glock for it’s compact size and concealability and then you put two frying pans on the bottom of it. Like a lot of ‘solutions’ in the firearm industry, I think I’m missing the point entirely.

      I agree, SG. For those that are allowed to CCW a G18 (a scant few of us), 19+1 (+2 floor plate) in the gun and a trio of 33 round mags is the way to go. Where the hell would you conceal this 100 rounder as backup? In a small backpack?

      Anyway, popping off a 100 round mag in a semi-auto pistol isn’t nearly as exciting. You know what that 100 rounder does though? It reminds most people that they will probably never have or even fire a G18.

    So this magazine should fit into a Kel-Tec Sub2000.

    also Lone Wolf Distributors makes a G9 glock mag carbine using a modified AR 15 receiver, but I’ve heard bad things about their upper/lower compatibility.

    http://www.lonewolfdist.com/Products.aspx?CAT=288

    Would any of those oversized glock-with-stock shells like the Roni or the HERA Arms kit make sense with this large beta mag? Having three points of contact might relieve operator fatigue when swinging around all that lead under your weapon.

    any other weapons take this magazine? Can any of them handle the super powerful russian 9x19mm 7N21 (not that it’s available, but just for interest sake)?

    also Lone Wolf Distributors makes a G9 glock mag carbine using a modified AR 15 receiver, but I’ve heard bad things about their upper/lower compatibility.

    http://www.lonewolfdist.com/Products.aspx?CAT=288

    Would any of those oversized glock-with-stock shells like the Roni or the HERA Arms kit make sense with this large beta mag? Having three points of contact might relieve operator fatigue when swinging around all that lead under your weapon.

    any other weapons take this magazine? Can any of them handle the super powerful russian 9x19mm 7N21 (not that it’s available, but just for interest sake)?

        Semi auto only calicos are being newly manufactured.

        http://calicolightweaponsystems.com/home/

        the liberty 100 tactical upgrades the sights considerably by adding a rail system for a red-dot.

        previously the rear sight was a lump of plastic with a notch in it, moulded into the detachable magazine.

      I think the original Calico got into trouble for slamfires and crappy-plastic-moulded-into-the-detachable-magazine sights, and didn’t get taken up in the police market like they wanted. A pity, because they had a nifty speed loader that loaded the 100 rd helical mag as fast as you could turn the crank.

      In Russia and China, the Bizon and the Chang Feng took the idea to it’s logical conclusion.

      In the US the closest we get to the concept is a AR five-seven upper, I think.

      Is there something inherently not cost effective about a supercapacity smg/pdw?

      or is it that the machine gun ban limited the market so much to basically PMCs and Government Procurement that it was difficult to enter the game as a new company?

      Unfortunately, helical magazines (so far) have proved to be unreliable due to the intricate and fragile nature of their internals. Mags get dropped on the ground a lot and it doesn’t take much to get one bent out of shape.

      It’s a shame as I really like them as a concept.

    I’m wondering how many people were slightly disappointed when they found this was coming out in 9mm and not .45. The Super V really needs a better ammo solution.

    It’s a shame the Glocks rate of fire is so high, makes it practically useless even in a carbine.

      It is not meant for a point target, any rapid firing weapon is for a area target. It is awesome, only it is lopsided, weight of the ammunition is too heavy for the weight of the weapon.

    With all those dummy rounds it seems… Inefficient.

      It is a pity to need the chain of dummy rounds, but it was the only way they could think of to get the live rounds up the feed tower. The dummy rounds are essentially a really tall, flexible follwer.

        Right, but that adds a great deal of size and weight. Puts this solidly in the category of “expensive range toy” to me.

    I can think of a few things to do with this! I agree that most recreational shooters won’t have a need, but this could be a huge hit in competition, glock/subgun conversions, and defensive (offensive) use. Really cool product. I just hope it has better reliability than the AR C-Mags.

    Hopefully when I am rich enough to afford one of those, I can also afford to pay someone to load it for me.

    100 rounds would be a bit of a pain
